Hit another darn post!!!!!

Buggered up my truck Wednesday, helping my friends widow, backing watching the trailer and hot a post, just pushed the mirror, I thought. When I opened the door at Mom's, (visit every wed, she's 97, sharp as a tac, sweet as sugar,) hit the fender and would not shut. I know it is just a material think, but I sure felt bad about hurting the body. I do have insurance, and made a claim, but all the body shops either did not want to work on it, or are scheduled way out. Have to wait until Aug 20th for the estimate, and goes in the shop Nov 6th. In the meantime I hope to repair the cab mounts, inner and outer rockers on drivers /passenger side, just the big doesn't show stuff. I will paint the original colors, but thinking of leaving the chrome off because it seems to always come off. Have a guy in Portland that does exceptional striping, silver leaf, etc. Thinking of going that route. Feel free to advise, as this will be a big expense for me.

Here is my fav box 1998 special edition Takamine sun moon and stars. Has all the right stuff....and what a shape! Makes me feel good every time I touch her. And her voice, oh so good n' sweet. She a square body girl, I likes em.

Has anyone bought the cab mounts, sheet metal, and any recommendations? I want good quality stuff! Want to buy it asap, and get started on the restore B-4 it goes into the shop, as I am planning on paying the shop to do the finished body work, and paint, then I will assemble with new rubber in the windows, doors etc. I have heard the wing windows are a PITA, Well the 54 PU I did, they were on that too.
